Letters of Love: A Lenten Meditation for Catholic Families

Letters of Love is a Lenten Meditation for Catholic families with differently-wired kids. Weekly prompts feature Scripture, inspiration from the saints, and flexible suggestions for prayer, sacrifice, and service. Throughout the course of Lent, you’ll build a collection of love letters to God and one another as a keepsake of your unique family’s spiritual, social, and emotional growth.

Are you with me? I promise it won’t be overwhelming. You can pick and choose what you want to do and modify as you see fit. Sharing Letters of Love is a way for me to pass on the gift my father gave to me: using the written word to grow closer to Christ and to our own beautiful, uniquely unrepeatable families.
